The alarm clock's numerals burn a sickly red: 3:47 AM. A sound like shearing steel rips through the quiet, chased by the ghost of a scream. Outside, shadows—too many, too fast—scurry past the window. The air in the room is stale and heavy with foreboding. The house itself seems to be holding its breath. The danger level is currently low. Your choices crystallize in the dark: investigate the disturbance, find a place to hide, attempt an escape, or check the door. The long night is just beginning.
